Research Description
Felipe Menanteau’s work sits at the intersection of observational cosmology, large-scale astrophysical surveys, and advanced research computing. He has extensive experience developing data-management and stewardship solutions for complex scientific collaborations, and has led multiple efforts to design high-performance data pipelines and scalable infrastructure for data-intensive astrophysics. He is now serving as Assistant Director for Data Stewardship and Computing at the Prairie Research Institute (PRI), where he is helping shape institute-wide strategies for research data, cyberinfrastructure, and long-term data stewardship.
